Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Goldman Sachs (Chicago, IL)
Colloquio
Complex. Very difficult. The questions varied significantly between behaviourals and technicals. Very focused on getting to know individual and whether he would be a strong fit. Overall was decent but not necessarily straightforward.

Colloquio
You have to make everyone believe you are all rooting for the same cause and you will succeed even though your choice of action to achieve that objective will probably differ. It is not a problem to disagree with the interviewer as long as your argument has merit and you are not just being objectionable because you feel that gives you kudos. The drawback was that whilst nearly all of the people are super bright and highly driven, the world they live in is based on different requirements from "life". These people are not executioners outside "executing" a deal.
